Yes, but I think this is being revisited. Vinyl continues to grow for example. Some of us are going away from single devices which can do everything, but can also control and spy on you for everything.
With single devices it feels like you're the curator of a collection just for you. With Spotify it feels like you're just an ear that's being leased.
Even if you don't like physical media, it's nice to have a collection that you can depend on. You never know when Spotify will take stuff away from you, or just won't add more obscure stuff. (Although, given how left wing Spotify is, I was quite surprised that you can find Werwolf by Absurd. I'm not sure how long that will last.)
